m_1=2 \\ m_2=3 \\ v_1=4 \\ v_2=1 \\ v\text{ =speed after collision (to be determined)}.

The momentul of the system preserves:

m_1v_1-m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v \ \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ \ \ \ v=\dfrac{m_1v_1-m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}.

Ok, we found the speed after the collision.
Now, because the impact is plastic, it produces heat, sound energy and who knows what other forms of energy. We denote all this wasted energy with E.

Now, we write the energy conservation law:

\dfrac{m_1v_1^2}{2}+\dfrac{m_2v^2_2}{2}=\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v^2}{2}+E

From the above equation, you find E,  and then conclude that the sound energy can certainly not be greater than this.

What is power in physics​
Shkiper50 [21]

Edit

In physics, power is the rate of doing work or of transferring heat, i.e. the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalarquantity. In the International System of Units, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the condenser steam engine. Another common and traditional measure is horsepower (comparing to the power of a horse). Being the rate of work, the equation for power can be written:

Power

Common symbols

Derivations from

other quantities

P = E/t

P = F·v

P = V·I

P = T·ω

As a physical concept, power requires both a change in the physical system and a specified time in which the change occurs. This is distinct from the concept of work, which is only measured in terms of a net change in the state of the physical system. The same amount of work is done when carrying a load up a flight of stairs whether the person carrying it walks or runs, but more power is needed for running because the work is done in a shorter amount of time.

Your friend is constructing a balancing display for an art project. She has one rock on the left ( ms=2.25 kgms=2.25 kg ) and th
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.

Explanation:

Given details:

The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg

The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg

The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m

(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp

Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).
